Uses:
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Bronchitis, Asthma, and Emphysema.
Medicinal Benefits:
Seretide 50 mcg/100 mcg Accuhaler is used to treat and prevent respiratory disorders like asthma attacks and chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). Seretide 50 mcg/100 mcg Accuhaler improves pulmonary function and effectively treats and prevents the worsening of emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of your bronchial tubes). Seretide 50 mcg/100 mcg Accuhaler is a combination of Salmeterol (bronchodilator) and Fluticasone (corticosteroid). Salmeterol relaxes the muscles in the airways and increases airflow to the lungs. It makes breathing easier by widening the airways. Fluticasone acts by blocking prostaglandins' production (chemical messengers) that cause inflammation (swelling) of the airways. Fluticasone has potent vasoconstrictive (narrowing of the blood vessels) and anti-inflammatory activity.
